Lipscomb Bisons guard Robert Boyd is listed as a freshman on the roster, but he isn’t playing like one.

Monday night at Allen Arena he followed up an impressive debut at No. 8 North Carolina with a team-leading 20-point performance, including 10-for-10 shooting from the free throw line, in a 103-78 win over Stillman College, an NCAA Division II school.

It was the home opener for the Bisons.

“Robert has had two very good games,” Lipscomb coach Scott Sanderson said. “He has made a bunch of shots which is great, but the biggest thing he has done is he is playing with a lot of poise and understanding.

“He has played well on both ends of the floor. He gives us a lot of energy defensively. He is very, very active. He didn’t have a turnover against North Carolina and only had two against Stillman. That’s pretty good from the point guard spot.”

Boyd has also not been shy about challenging the opposition.

“He has played some big games in high school before,” Sanderson said. “He has a lot of confidence in his game. And his teammates have a lot of confidence in him.

“This is the way he has been playing in practice. He is playing awfully well.”

Sanderson got a long look at his team with 12 of 13 players on the roster playing 10 or more minutes.

Five players finished in double figures.

“My biggest thing was to get everybody some playing time,” Sanderson said. “I am trying to figure out who is going to play and figure out a substitution rotation. That’s why we played so many guys.

“It is probably going to be a battle every game. We will change our lineup pretty much every night until January until we settle in on who is going to be doing what. We have eight guys that are good enough and deserve to start. We are going to rotate players in and out based on what we need each game.”
